TV personality Lorraine Keane has confirmed that she will be back on our screens this summer.

The presenter told the Herald that her one-off show The Interview is now being extended with UTV Ireland.

"I am back working with UTV Ireland on The Interview," she said.

"My first interview was with Josh Groban a few weeks ago, which was great - so we are going to be doing more of that."

The former TV3 star interviewed the You Raise Me Up singer in April for a 30-minute special that saw the international star discuss his career and his new album, Stages.

UTV Ireland had said they were interested in doing more specials with the former Xposé host. Keane had stepped away from TV to spend more time with her two daughters, Emelia (11) and Romy (8).

Fashion

Keane will also be keeping busy in the style stakes as she takes to Taste of Dublin this month to judge the best-dressed competition, as well as judging the best fashion from both Leopardstown and Navan racecourses.

She was speaking at her second Keane on Style event at Monkstown's Café du Journal, organised to support and promote her favourite independent designers and boutiques.

"I've been asked over the years about who I'd recommend when it comes to skincare and hair, where I get my makeup done, where I buy clothes and all health and beauty stuff.

"So that's what Keane on Style is about. It's a gathering of experts that I invited in, because I believe they're the best in the business, to help other women."

The event has proved popular and she now has plans to take the workshop around the country.
